Okkervil River - Black Sheep Boy
I sat on this release for a while and I have to say, it really grew on me. Indie folk, indie rock, whatever it is, it's emotional and interesting.
Tegan and Sara - The Con
I Tegan and Sara and it's hard to explain why. I still haven't decided which one of their albums is my favorite, and I think that's because I pretty much like them all.
